"I don't remember who posted this on Twitter a few years ago, but whoever you are: you have improved every night I've spent in a hotel since," he wrote.

As his tweet went viral, others shared their own genuinely clever hotel room hacks.

Among them: using the TV to charge devices if there aren't enough power points, using the ironing board as an adjustable desk, and using a shower cap to cover the TV remote, which we all know probably isn't cleaned as often as we'd like to hope.

Brilliant.

My favorite hotel hack: Your ironing board is an adjustable height desk. Since the chairs are never the right height, use the ironing board for long hotel work.

Girl! Wal-Mart/Target-like places sell 99 cent packs of anti-bacterial wipes. As soon as you get there, wipe down the room phone, remote, bathroom stuff, nightstands, etc. If you’re flying, your first use should be the arm rests and fold-down tray on the plane!

Also, if you have a recent iPhone/iPad get an Lightning to HDMI adaptor, then you can stream Netflix/Hulu/iTunes/YouTube—or pretty much any video “entertainment”—even on TVs that aren’t smart equipped. pic.twitter.com/prHBxYXJHr
